@mehhead nice... snipe in with the hi.. to get first comment?

My father-in-law refers to all travel mugs as sippy cups. Usually quite loudly and within earshot of said mug carrier.

@sohmageek, yeah, there's a handful of commenters who regularly post an empty comment as soon as something goes on sale (to then fill in with something funny later at their leisure)… apparently to get the caché of being the first/second/third witty comment. Kinda annoying, actually. But overall, harmless.

@Tin_Foil I misread the description and thought it was 6 for 2$, my first was thought was "what a rip off.". Now my thought is tomorrow is fuku for sure.

@sohmageek yes please and without those stupid handles on them.

@sohmageek What was wrong with your meh cups? I mean, other than them saying "meh"? Mine seem okay so far...

Or is that a mug pun?

@sohmageek I haven't used my meh cups yet. Is there something I should know?

@jayplus707 was that sarcasum? Because I have only seen cups with no handles. I have been waiting on a 20 oz with handles I use crutches and handles are so much easier.

@wolfk they were 16 oz

@Skylord123 The only complaint I have seen is that if you fling them across a room or juggle with them they leak a bit around the lid. I use mine every day.

@sohmageek love all of the contigo cups i have

@wolfk
On amazon you can get insulated slings or neoprene slings that let you carry a closed coffee mug or water bottle on your shoulder. It can take a little experimentation to get the right fit.

@Skylord123 If you asked an engineer they'd tell you you have too much glass.

Glass was constructed to 2x hydration requirements.

@Mehrocco_Mole I'd call him a glass hole

@Skylord123 No, that would be a pessimist or a Democrat.

@Mehrocco_Mole I was wondering that myself. Apparently it's the artwork from a really early poster.

@Mehrocco_Mole Those aren't the characters from the movie....they are people from a galaxy far far away!

@nogoodwithnames Is it cheaper to license the original artwork? This is awkwardly different than the final cover art with Mark and Carrie.

@toblathe Yeah, I don't get it either. I do get that Lucas thought the original poster was too dark (I have both of them up on my walls), but why does that mean the faces had to change?

Has to be fate that I decided to wear my Star Cats t-shirt before I saw Meh this morning.

@Mehrocco_Mole I have that image in an oversized poster. I love it. I look it knowing it's the 1970's and it's a new movie where the actors are unknown and could be a forgettable flick. It's cool in it own right not being on every Walmart $5 shirt or cheap pencil case.

@toblathe Yeah that was my thought. Probably cheaper and possibly easier since it doesn't feature the likeness of anyone.

@Pavlov

Good thing I never got VMP.

@FroodyFrog I think it also works the other way around. An impulse buy today means another month of feeling like you need to put the VMP to use.

Just tell me you don't pay $5 for shipping on a single item instead of getting a "free" month of VMP when you buy.

@stinks

I've been a meh-mber for 623 days, and have only pulled the trigger twice. It would have been 3 times, but that's irrelevant.

Today is the only day that I have thought about maybe, possibly pulling the trigger.

@gruverja Anyone can guess untransposed b1ff passwords, dude. Model numbers are no different.

Or something like that.

@jayplus707 they are most likely pre-packed in cases from the manufacturer in twos (often two for tuesday stuff seems to be) and catering to your desire to have one of each would require someone unpacking and repacking the things to suit you, inflating their bottom line and reducing their already mediocre profits.

You can always get singles though:

@radi0j0hn, my kid is 5. I'M IN.

@radi0j0hn My inner 8 year still carries a torch for Thor. The one thing holding me back is the "no microwave."

@LaVikinga you can use lightning bolts with it then.

@zachhh My strategy is to pay for VMP when I buy something and cancel if nothing I want to buy comes up within the month. It also has the effect of not buying as much. Adding $5 to some things is a deal killer, and lately, I've not seen much I want to buy.

@thismyusername Now, if they had Buster Crabbe and company, and cool Ming the Merciless...that would be nice.

@radi0j0hn

@falseaccount Damn Meh's comment collapsing. You beat me on that by an hour.

@RedOak Those Bubba tumblers are pretty great. I gave my sister one as a silly, but useful, gift for Christmas. She LOVES it and calls it her "sippy cup."

@elpepe Uh, you wanna bet? I mean, I might ask him to put it down during frisky times if it's holding hot liquids, but that's just safe sex.

@jaremelz have you no standards ? I wouldn't whack myself of it I had one of these.

@cshillaber excellent post and very funny

@cshillaber
I dont think you are really a billionaire this month. Your investments didnt do so well this spring.

Also somebody told me you have smsll hands.

@unkabob the operative word is freak.

@Bkmack ... Now, now.. We all have our heroes.

@unkabob Give it to her without the lid and tell her it's either a pen & pencil cup for her desk, a vase, or a makeup brush holder for her vanity.

@bigtom67 they keep it hot until the heat makes the cup disintegrate

@mellowirishgent Have you met @cshillaber?
